Karen Beckwith, the Flora Stone Mather Professor of Political Science, recently received the Outstanding Professional Scholar Award from the Midwest Political Science Association’s Women’s Caucus.
The award recognizes a woman who has made a substantial contribution to the scholarship of political science, to the profession and to its associations; who has actively mentored women; and who serves as a positive role model for women in the profession.
Beckwith was honored with the award at the association’s 2013 meeting earlier this year.
